The Town of Middletown Pension Plan GASB 67 and 68 Information For Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2018 November 2018

Buck 420 Lexington Ave. Suite 2220 New York, NY 10170 November 2018 Mr. Marc W. Tanguay Finance Director Town Hall Town of Middletown 350 East Main Road Middletown, Rhode Island 02842 Dear Mr. Tanguay: Buck was retained to issue a report presenting the disclosure requirements under Statement Nos. 67 and 68 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. This report presents the results for the Town of Middletown Pension Plan for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. Purpose of this Report The plan sponsor may use this report to prepare the plan s and the plan sponsor s audited financial statements. Use of this report for any other purpose or by anyone other than the plan sponsor or the auditor may not be appropriate and may result in mistaken conclusions due to failure to understand applicable assumptions, methodologies, or inapplicability of the report for that purpose. Because of the risk of misinterpretation of actuarial results, Buck recommends requesting it to perform an advance review of any statement, document, or filing based on information contained in this report. Buck will accept no liability for any such statement, document or filing made without prior review by Buck. Where presented, references to net pension liability and fiduciary net position as a percentage of the total pension liability may be appropriate for evaluating the need and level of future contributions but makes no assessment regarding the funded status of the Fund if the Fund were to settle (i.e., purchase annuities to cover) a portion or all of its liabilities. Future actuarial measurements Future actuarial measurements may differ significantly from current measurements due to plan experience differing from that anticipated by the economic and demographic assumptions, changes expected as part of the natural operation of the methodology used for these measurements, and changes in plan provisions, applicable law or regulations. Buck performed no analysis of the potential range of such future differences other than the sensitivity to possible changes in the discount rate, as an analysis of the potential range of such future differences is beyond the scope of this valuation. Data Used Buck performed the calculations using participant data as of July 1, 2017, and financial data as of June 30, 2018 both supplied by the Town and John Hancock. Buck did not audit the data, although they were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency with the prior year data. The accuracy of the results of the valuation is dependent on the accuracy of the data.

Mr. Marc W. Tanguay November 2018 Town of Middletown Page 2 Actuarial Certification The plan sponsor selected the assumptions used for the accounting results and funding policy calculations in the report with our advice and these reflect the experience study performed in 2018. All assumptions represent an estimate of future experience. We believe that these assumptions are reasonable and comply with the requirements of GASB 67 and 68. We prepared this report s accounting exhibits in accordance with the requirements of these standards. Based on the individually reasonable assumptions used in the preparation of this report, and on the data furnished us, we certify that projection of the costs under this plan has been made using generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. The valuation was prepared under the supervision of Prakash Sankaran, a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries and a Member of the American Academy of Actuaries and Aaron Shapiro, a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries and a Member of the American Academy of Actuaries. Mr. Sankaran and Mr. Shapiro have both met the Qualification Standards of the American Academy of Actuaries to render the actuarial opinion contained herein. This report has been prepared in accordance with all applicable Actuarial Standards of Practice, and we are available to answer questions about it. The Table of Contents, which immediately follows, outlines the material contained in the report. Respectfully submitted, Buck Global, LLC Prakash Sankaran, FSA, EA, MAAA Senior Consultant, Retirement Aaron Shapiro, FSA, EA, MAAA Principal, Retirement Jonathan E.

Section 1 GASB 67 and 68 Information Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Method used to value investments Investments are reported at fair value. Actuarial cost method Entry Age Normal Level Percent of Pay. Plan Description Plan administration The Town of Middletown (Town) administers the Town of Middletown Pension Plan (Plan), a defined benefit pension plan that provides pensions for all full-time employees of the Town. Employees hired after July 1, 2001 become members of the State plan and do not participate in this plan. Plan administrators are the Town Administrator, the Finance Director and the Deputy Finance Director. The Town has the exclusive authority to amend the plan. Plan membership This valuation is a roll forward valuation in that the liabilities have been prepared based on census data as of June 30, 2017 and projected to June 30, 2018 according to the valuation s demographic assumptions. As of June 30, 2017, pension plan membership consisted of the following: Membership Status Count Total Expected Future Working Lifetime Inactive plan members or beneficiaries currently receiving 138 0.00 Inactive plan members entitled to but not yet receiving 3 0.00 Active plan members 10 39.80 Average Expected Future Working Lifetime Total 151 39.80 0.26 Benefits provided Please see Section 4 of the report for a summary of plan provisions. Contributions The Town establishes contributions based on an actuarially determined contribution recommended by an independent actuary. The actuarially determined contribution is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by plan members during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. For the year ended June 30, 2018, the Town contributed $2,403,830 to the Plan. Investments Rate of return For the year ended June 30, 2018, the annual money-weighted rate of return on pension plan investments, net of pension plan investment expense, was 8.61%. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment performance, net of investment expense, adjusted for the changing amounts actually invested. Receivables An employer receivable contribution on behalf of the Library was made on August 21, 2018 and was also included in the plan assets. Buck Page 1 of 15

Section 1 GASB 67 and 68 Information (continued) Net Pension Liability The components of the net pension liability at June 30, 2018 were as follows: Components of Net Pension Liability Total pension liability $ 58,217,854 Plan fiduciary net position (60,206,214) Town s net pension liability (1,988,360) Plan fiduciary net position as a percentage of the total pension liability 103.42% Pension Expense as of June 30, 2018 Pension Expense Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2018 Service Cost $ 140,071 Interest Cost on Total Pension Liability 4,133,704 Differences between Expected and Actual Experience 1,444,275 Changes of Assumptions 0 Contributions-Member (59,952) Projected Earnings on Plan Investments (4,248,135) Differences between Projected and Actual Earnings 644,118 Administrative Expenses 161,654 Other 0 Total Pension Expense $ 2,215,735 The difference between projected and actual investment earnings is recognized over five years, in accordance with the provisions of GASB 68. The differences between expected and actual experience and the effect of changes in assumptions are recognized over the average expected remaining service of all participants, which is 0.26 years. This means that the differences between expected and actual experience and the effect of changes in assumptions are effectively recognized immediately. Actuarial assumptions The June 30, 2018 total pension liability was determined by using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement: Actuarial Assumptions Inflation 3.00% Salary increases 5.00% Investment rate of return 7.50%, net of pension plan investment expenses. This is based on an average inflation rate of 3.00% and a real rate of return of 4.50%. Census data was collected as of June 30, 2017 and projected to June 30, 2018 according to the valuation s demographic assumptions. Mortality rates were based on 115% of RP-2000 Combined Mortality for Males with White Collar adjustments, projected generationally with Scale AA from 2000 and 95% of RP-2000 Combined Mortality for Females with White Buck Page 2 of 15

Section 1 GASB 67 and 68 Information (continued) Collar adjustments, projected generationally with Scale AA from 2000. The Society of Actuaries is working on a Public Plan Mortality Study and they are expected to release final public plan mortality table based on this study by the end of the year. Therefore, we have deferred making a change in the mortality assumption until the next valuation. The valuation interest rate was determined through a forecast of the expected return of the plan s assets over the next 30 years. Forecast values were generated using the GEMS Economic Scenario Generator, which Buck leases from Conning and Company. The GEMS model is a multifactor economic model that uses basic macroeconomic variables (GDP growth, employment levels, expected and actual inflation) to generate simulations of the economy over the period. A total of 1,000 stochastic forecast paths were generated, and the simulated geometric mean portfolio return (based on the plan s current asset allocation) over 30 years was computed on each path. The valuation interest rate is based on the average return computed on these 1,000 paths, rounded to the nearest half percent. Over a 20-year period, the 50th percentile annual rate of return forecast for such a portfolio is approximately 7.71%. The 75th and 25th percentiles of the distributions of annual rate of return forecasts over 20 years are 9.44% and 6.02%, respectively. Based on these results, the rate of return assumption used in the valuation was set to be 7.50% per year. The above analysis was based on the following planned asset allocation for the Plan as of July 2017: Asset Class Allocation Equity 57.3% Investment Grade Bonds 6.6% High Yield / Convertible Bonds 14.9% Money Market 1.1% Hancock IPG 20.1% Total 100.0% The 50th percentile of the 20-year projection of inflation from GEMS is 2.78%, which forms the basis of the underlying inflation assumption of 3.00% per year. Discount rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.50%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that Town contributions will continue to follow the current funding policy. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Had there been a point where assets were projected to be depleted, a municipal bond rate of 2.98% would have been used in the development of the blended GASB discount rate after that point. The 2.98% rate is based on the S&P Municipal Bond 20 Year High Grade Rate Index. Sensitivity of the net pension liability to changes in the discount rate The following presents the net pension liability, calculated using the discount rate of 7.50%, as well as what the Town's net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is 1-percentage-point lower (6.50%) or 1-percentage-point higher (8.50%) than the current rate: 1% Decrease (6.50%) Current Discount Rate (7.50%) 1% Increase (8.50%) Net Pension Liability $ 3,619,921 $ (1,988,360) $ (6,748,172) Buck Page 3 of 15

Section 3 Actuarial Assumptions and Methods Actuarial Funding Assumptions Funding valuation interest rate 7.50% per annum Interest rate for accounting 7.50% per year, compounded annually. Projected benefit payments that are expected to be paid from available plan assets are discounted at the valuation interest rate of 7.50%. After the point where plan assets are not available to pay benefits, projected benefit payments are discounted at the municipal bond rate. The valuation rate for accounting purposes is the effective rate resulting from this process. Municipal bond rate 2.98%. This rate is based on the S&P Municipal Bond 20 Year High Grade Rate Index. Compensation increase rate 5.00% per annum Retirement age: Police and Fire Department Rates according to the following table: Years of Service Percent Retiring All Others Less than 20 0% 20 25% 21 24 50% 25 or more 100% 100% at the age at which unreduced benefits are first available. Mortality 115% of RP-2000 Combined Mortality for Males with White Collar adjustments, projected generationally with Scale AA from 2000 and 95% of RP-2000 Combined Mortality for Females with White Collar adjustments, projected generationally with Scale AA from 2000. Disability Incidence United Auto Workers 1955 Table Turnover Sarason Table T-1 Table Marriage Assumption 90% of males and 75% of females are married, with males four years older than their female spouse.

Section 3 Actuarial Assumptions and Methods (continued) Actuarial Funding Assumptions (continued) Expenses Prior year s expenses, rounded to the nearest thousand dollars. Participant Data Retiree census data was supplied by John Hancock. All other employee data used in these calculations was supplied by the employer. The experience study performed in 2018 represents the most recent comprehensive review of the actuarial assumptions noted above. Buck Page 8 of 15

Section 3 Actuarial Assumptions and Methods (continued) Funding Methods Actuarial Cost Method Entry age normal. The actuarial present value of projected benefits of each individual is allocated on a level basis over the covered salary of the individual between date of hire and assumed date they cease active employment. The portion of this actuarial present value not provided for at the valuation date by the actuarial present value of future entry age normal cost is called the accrued liability. Assets Funding General Account assets are determined at book value. Separate Account assets are determined at market value. The Actuarial Value of assets is determined using a method that spreads over a period of five years the difference between the actual investment income and the expected income (based on the valuation interest rate applied to the prior year s market value of assets). Resulting value constrained to be within corridor from 80% to 120% of market value. Accounting Market value of assets Amortization Period The unfunded accrued liability is amortized over a closed six-year period beginning with the July 1, 2012 valuation. Changes since the Prior Valuation There were no changes in assumptions. Buck Page 9 of 15
